Madderty Community Association is at an exciting time.  The previous hall, built in the early 1920's had served the community well but it is was at the end of its life.  After a period of 89 years of use as the village hall the existing hall finally closed its doors after the Hogmanay party in the early hours of 1 January 2010.  Work is well underway on the new hall and it is hoped that the new hall will be opened before Christmas 2010.

Site works on the new hall will start on 1 March 2010 and the new hall should be completed by late Autumn 2010.
